before i go to sleep,

languages include sign languages. Personally, I'm multilingual with 2-3 mother tongues of equal ability and usage and my dreams have no language beyond facial expressions and gestures.

*pats your back* it's OK, sis, it's OK. We'll just change our phone wallpapers to pretty skies, change the layout and then we'll gently purge our phones outside the windows and start using it for less than 2 hours a day, we'll also eat more fruits and soups, touch the wall, then the floor,the carpet and the door and before we know it, we'll reach the grass and plants waiting for us all this time,and then we'll look at the sky, look at it some more and fall asleep, we'll then take a nice refreshing bath, wash our hair and sit on our desk, smile and then take our books to sit on the floor, and sis, that's when magic happens because you don't need more, you need less. You don't need plans, you need space, to be, content without those mfs.

I think its very academia to say Fuck Capitalism.

If it wasn’t for the capitalization and privatization of education and reading, we would probably all be eternal students.

So yeah, fuck capitalism!

My younger sister started school again today! She graduated earlier this summer and is now starting vocational training. I am super proud of her! She has some health issues that affected/affect her development and because of that many doctors predicted that she wouldn't ever be able to get to where she is now. Despite all that she worked hard and got far because of it. She'll have to keep working hard and it won't always be easy for her, but I believe that she's going to accomplish great things <3

I also did some self reflecting those past days. My mental health declined a little bit ever since I arrived at my parents'. I'm pretty sure it's mainly stress and the change of environment that is messing with me, but I do believe that my diet is playing a part as well. My family eats a lot of processed food as well as a lot of animal products. When I moved out last year I changed my diet quite drastically. I don't eat animal products often anymore and rarely buy candy and so on because I know I tend to over-eat on things like that. Now that I'm surrounded my all those foods again I gotta make more of an effort to watch what I'm eating. I really hope that'll help.

Positive things I did that day:

started research for my big essay again

continued looking for internships

got some work done for my job at the university

watched Breaking Dawn part 2

After having finally finished Swimming in the Dark a started a whopping two (2) books today! Kind of on accident, actually...

I've had Ariadne sitting on my shelf at my parents' for forever now and since I wasn't feeling in the mood for the spooky classics I had set out for September I decided to start that one instead. I love studying religious history, especially ancient Greek and Roman cults and religious practices. The way religion was so intricately woven into all parts of daily life is extremely fascinating to me, and the myths (and mythology retellings in turn) really reflect that! I haven't made much progress on Ariadne yet, but I'm excited to read on.

After having started book number one in the morning I promptly forgot it at home once I headed out to pick up my siblings from school. So I did the only logical thing to do and bought a new book to read during the wait :) The cover of Where the Crawdads Sing has been speaking to me for a while now. The plot isn't really in line with what I usually read but, hey, it got a map in the front and my fantasy loving brain is wired to that stuff. In the end I ended up not having much time to read, so I only got through the Prologue, but I like the writing style so far.

Positive things I did that day:

ran errands

got paperwork done

visited family

read

A very, very eventful day! A friend of mine is staying with me for a few weeks to cut down on commuting costs while she's attending a block course at our university and the whole day revolved around getting things settled and prepared for that.

I didn't get anything productive done because of that but it still felt like a very successful day!

Getting jump scared by the Mollymauk/Lucien book just sitting between Sally Rooneys at the book shop also added some spice to the day.

Positive things I did today:

spend time with friends

went for a walk
